Canisius -1.5 over Siena ** early game
Game starts at 2pm....have no idea what is going on in the MAAC..Saints are loaded and pre-season 2nd or 3rd place...Wright their pt gd is back.. Ogun,Bip in the front line...Long and big time soph Clareth is top scorers...and they are 4-9 just got beat by Vermont...they can't shoot or play defense....Canisius mean while is kicking ass....have won 4 or 5 in a row...beat the Bonnies and Bufflao at their places... Valenti scored 27 pts the other night is 27 playing in his 6th year...damn..he has been there forever///Robertson is avg 17 pts..Crumpton is scoring....Talent wise the saints are much better...but Griffs are playing better and are at home...Reggie the new coach has these kids playing....think Saints are in trouble today...

[Box and one]

Hofstra -3.5 over W&Mary **
Northeastern -3.5 over Drex **

ODU -13 over North Texas ***
NT gets blown away by an avg Charlotte team 101-76...ODU can't score or shoot..one of the worst 3 pt shooting teams in the country{ 27%} FG ranked 345th...they avg under 60 pts...but they can play defense..they held Rice the other day who can score to 56 pts...NT has no discipline..even the announcers in the Char game were dum founded.." they play no defense,looks like street ball,etc... they shot 3 -18 or something like that from the 3...Frazier the new transfer was 0-12 from the field,0-6 from the 3...ODU got suspended player Tally back last game and he hit for 18...NT plays no defense is ranked 304th in def Fg%....if Char won by 25 ODU will do the same...ODU could get season high in pts tonite..

Rice-3.5 over Charlotte ***
Rice has Evans and co....they can score...plus their heads have to be si swollen after scoring over 100 vs the Mean green...

WKU -1.5 over FIU ***

UTA -15 over Appa St ******
mavs have won 10 in a row..just blew away Coastal..this is a team that beat St Mary,Texas and a few others....have a super pt gd,big gds,a fd that can shoot the 3 and a 6'9 pt gd,2-gd,3-gd,4 and 5 post players..Hervey as long as his knee holds out is outstanding...UTA wins by +20 and the Mavs do play tough defense...

Texas St -3.5 over Coastal ***
Bobcats have won a few in a row...they always play great defense..the problem is ..can their offense score enough...so far they are....Coastal is so young... I was going to that game tonight since I thought I would be leaving for austin yesterday....but not leaving until Sunday..so will go to this game tonight in my back yard...

Manhattan -2 over Marist ***
Foxes are so messed up... still no front court..Parker their 6'2 gd pulled down a team high 10 rebounds..Hart one of the MAAC's best gds has lost his range...think at home tonight he finds it.. Jaspers aren't any better...they do play better defense and 5'9 Turner is scoring...Capuano has awoken and the Jaspers do have 6'9 Waterman inside...Ismail is 7'2 and Crawford is 6'8...but together they avg about 10 pts 9 bds...Funk is playing well....for Marist...looking forward to the game...no crowd at all...winter break no students...

Iona -4 over Fairfield **
Stags have Nelson..decent gds,etc.. Iona loaded esp in the post with Washington...but Stags keep this close..Iona was down by 15-20 to Marist the other day....then Iona up by 20 with minutes to go...then Iona lets foxes score in garbage time and wins by 13 which was a backdoor push...

Monmouth -6 over Peter **
Rider not only beats Monmouth but kills them...Hawks,nice job because when you win your 22 games and the NCAA doesn't let you go to the big dance shut up...think Hawks were hit in the head with a brick....still hurting from North Carolina beat down..think they have to come back today...Peter will have 200 fans at the game..

Niagara -3.5 over Quinn **
Purple aren't going to win to many games..they need a home win..
Best play
UTA -15

off to Poughkeepsie...
